Amazed At The Change

 

2006 Rodney Griffin / Songs of Greater Vision / BMI

 

Chorus

I’m amazed at the change

Overwhelmed at His power to save

Overcome by a love that stays

So amazed at the change

If you could see the man I was

Then you’d believe in a saving touch

That could reach down to where I was

You’d be amazed at the change

 

Verse 1

Saul was a walkin’ – traveling down a dusty road

Toward Damascus – bearing a heavy load

God broke through the darkness

Showed His love with a heavenly light

Saul said I’ve never felt this way

I’m amazed at the change

 

Verse 2

I was a sinner – living without hope at all

Until the Savior – listened and He heard my call

Changed me forever – now the old things are passed away

No matter how long it’s beenI’m still amazed

 

TAG

That could reach down to where I was,

You’d be amazed at the change

I’m amazed at the change

Keep Me

 

Doran Ritchey / BMI

 

Chorus

Keep me walkin’ close to You

‘cause I know You walked this way before

Keep me lookin’ up to You

‘cause I know You see when my heart is pure

Don’t let me walk away from the things

that’s brought me to this place

So here’s my prayer goin’ up to You… Lord, keep me

 

Verse 1

When the closest to you is the farthest away

When the song in your night doesn’t last till the day

Help me learn to believe and trust in your grace

The trials get smaller when you show me your face

 

Verse 2

When you’ve given your best and it’s not good enough

When your faith meets the test and the answers won’t come

I know I can trust you, you’ve led me along

So here’s how I’m praying- I wanna be strong

Lord…

 

 

Broken But Blessed

 

Sue C. Smith / Twila LaBar

 

Verse 1

What was I thinking to think that this life

Of following Jesus would never be hard.

I’m here to tell you some days it’s a battle

And I’m just one soldier fighting this war.

 

Chorus

I’m wounded but not beaten – down but not defeated

I’m weary but when I’m weary in Jesus there is rest

My heart is aching but open and I press on knowing

I may be broken but I am blessed

 

Verse 2

From the beginning believers who followed

They all paid the price of surrender to God

But all those who love Him could tell the same story

About what we are and all that we’re not

 

TAG

My heart is aching but open and I press on knowing…..

I may be broken but I am blessed….

I may be broken but I am blessed.

 

Just Stand

 

Doran Ritchey / BMI

 

Verse 1

Lookin’ at the Red Sea – don’t know how we’ll make it

Pharoah’s army’s closer- how we gonna shake em?

Moses, where’s the God you’ve been talking about?

Moses goes before God – how you gonna help me?

All these people out here really wanna kill me

We’ve brought them out this far – how you gonna bring us out?

 

Chorus

(Just Stand) God is seeing everything coming your way

He will take the stumbling blocks, make them stepping stones of grace

(Just Stand) don’t turn around and go back the way you came

When your heart is full of fear don’t forget He knows your name

Just stand! (Just stand)

 

Verse 2

Standing on the banks now – all the people trembling

Moses, sure afraid, can he trust the God in heaven?

He raised his hand up high – stretched it over the sea

God moved ‘round behind them – gave them some protection

They went across on dry land where the water had been

The army tried to follow, but the water fell on them.

 

Bridge

Stand tall – wait on the Father, stand strong- He Knows your name

 

Chorus

(Just Stand) God is seeing everything coming your way

He will take the stumbling blocks, make them stepping stones of grace

(Just Stand) don’t turn around and go back the way you came

When your heart is full of fear don’t forget He knows your name…

 

Into The Water

 

Michael Wiebe

 

Verse 1

Into the water, down to the grave;

Drawn by the Spirit, my soul to save.

Old life behind me, new life begins;

Jesus, my Savior, now reigns deep within.

 

Chorus

And I was dead, but now I’m alive.

Was lost, but now, I’ve found the Door.

Was bound by chains of my own making

but now through Christ,I’m free evermore.

 

Verse 2

Praise to the Father, praise to the Son.

Praise to the Spirit, who makes us all one.

My sins are forgiven, I’m free praise His name.

New life for the living and Heaven to gain.

 

Verse 3

One day I’ll stand before God the Father

The battle is over the victory is won.

I will rejoice that I’ve been through the water.

I am redeemed, I’m saved by the Son!

 

Bridge

I’m free evermore! I’m free evermore

 

 

 

Call It What It Is

 

Phil Cross

 

Verse 1

When you consider the cross where the Savior bled and died for you

When you imagine the pull of His passion to pay this price for you

You cannot find the words to say for such a thing as this

You just can’t call it what you want so you call it what it is

 

Chorus

Call it Amazing, Call it Grace,

Call it a Simple PlanGod would take our place

Don’t call it easy – there’s nothing quite like this

Call it Amazing, call it what it is

 

Verse 2

You may call it a gift, for it is a gift – God’s gift to you

You may call it love, for it’s truly love – God’s love for you

You can call it the answer – the bridge for sin’s abyss

You who call it everything, call it what it is

 

Bridge

Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me

I once was lost but now I’m found was blind but now I see

 

 

Music At Midnight

 

Rebecca Peck/Thomas

 

Chorus

God gives music at midnight.

He says my child, it’s gonna be alright

So keep singing through your circumstance – victory is in sight

Music at midnight, music at midnight

 

Verse 1

There was joy in the jailhouse, praise in the prison

That night Paul and Silas kept the hallelujahs ringing

It seemed they were down and out but there was no mistaken

The pow’r of God was all around when shackles were shaken

 

INSTRUMENTAL

 

Verse 2

Don’t despair in the darkness, trust through your trials

That morning will come and God is with you all the while

His peace like a melody will fill your heart with gladness

A song of faith and victory no matter what happens

 

Bridge

When you call his all-sufficient grace is on the way

Lift your voice, rejoice and give him praise- give Him the praise

 

 

He's Been There Too

 

Rebecca Peck / John Robinson

 

Verse 1

The scene was so familiar outside Jerusalem’s gates

As Stephen faced the angry crowd Jesus heard him say

Words like he had spoken himself not long ago

As he looked on with compassion, he could almost feel the stones

 

Chorus

He’s been there too, he felt the pain

He made it through to show the way

Fully surrendered because He knew

Joy was awaiting, he’d been there too

 

Verse 2

Your suffering has left you with a shattered heart

It seems that there is no one who understands your scars

But Jesus is acquainted with the grief that fills your soul

He is the man of sorrows and He wants you to know

 

Bridge

Despised and rejected, wounded for our sake

He has gone before us so we will not lose faith

 

Tag

Fully surrendered because He knew….Joy was awaiting…. He’s been there too.

 

 

Why Wouldn't I

 

Doran Ritchey / BMI

 

Verse 1

People watching me wonder how it can be

I can trust in the One I can’t see

How do I figure it out – is there ever any doubt

Someone higher is a lookin’ after me?

With a smile on my face,I say it’s hard to erase

everything He’s brought me through

If you have some time there’s something on my mind

Now listen and I’ll share it with you

 

Chorus

Why wouldn’t I trust in a God who can take a dead man

bring him back to life after three days

Why wouldn’t I believe in the One who can cleanse ten lepers

and send them all rejoicing on their way

If He rescued three men from the heat of the journey

and another from the lion’s den

Why wouldn’t I believe He understands

everything we face

and He’s waiting to deliver us again

 

Verse 2

I see that look in your eyes you’re acting full of surprise

does He care that much about you?

Don’t try and figure it out, give some rest to your doubt.

There’s a God and he’s waiting on you

He wants to turn you around –get your faith off the ground

and show you what He can do

Will you stand with me in spite of all the heat

someone else is needin’ this truth

 

Tag

Why wouldn’t I believe He understands everything we face

He’s waiting to deliver us again

 

 

He Will Quiet You

 

Doran Ritchey/BMIPhil Cross/BMI

 

Verse 1

It’s not supposed to be this way you’ve trusted in His name

You’ve read his Word, He’s promised you His never-ending grace

But how does what your going through fit any kind of plan

How long must you cry out to Him before He understands?

 

Chorus

He will quiet you

When all you have is nothing – except the pain of suffering

He will quiet you

It doesn’t mean that everything will suddenly be new againwith all your battles ended

Knowing what is best – He may still send the test

But with His love around your heart – He’ll quiet you

 

INTERLUDE

 

Verse 2

Your friends with good intentions have listened to your pain

They come to you with answers but mysteries remain

Turn to God, He’ll comfort you and He wants you to know

He’s so near that you can hear Him whisper from your soul

 

 

That's What Love Does

 

Doran Ritchey / BMI

 

Verse 1

When those around you are hard to get to

it seems your words hit the wall

Just keep on livin’ as one forgiven

they’ll see God answer you when on His name you call

Be sure that heaven is filled with praises

each time one sinner finds the Lord

So just be faithful to share the Gospel … that’s what love doesC

 

Chorus

Love does not end when people send the truth away from their heart

Remember God knows how to reach them now – He’ll give a brand new start

 

INSTRUMENTAL

 

Verse 2

Think back to your time – the days in your life,

you didn’t need God at all

But he was faithful while saints were prayerful

You saw God answer them when on His name they called

You were that sinner who met the Savior –

you found His plan for you and me

You don’t deserve it but He still gives it…

that’s what love does

 

Chorus

Love does not end when people send the truth away from their heart

Remember God knows how to reach them now – He’ll give a brand new start

Be sure that heaven is filled with praises

each time one sinner finds the Lord

So just be faithful to share the Gospel… that’s what love does

 

TAG OUT

…you don’t deserve it

That’s what love does – and He still gives it

That’s what love does
